Neat project, I've wanted to give it a try for a while but never got around to do it, great job !
Interesting that it put the comma at the same place as the bepo [1] ! It obviously recognized that vowels should be placed on the home row on a single hand, it has it on the right hand when dvorak/bepo have them on the left hand.
It'd be interesting to train it on code as well and see where it positions the special chars. I personally really like the bepo's choice of putting them on alt_gr+[right_hand_key] as it allows me to reduce finger stretches to hit them, that's what was causing me pain on QWERTY, especially with js, and convinced me to make the move to bepo. I fins lisp is BY FAR the healthiest language when it comes to fingers, though you do need shortcuts to manipulate lisp code sanely.
Is the keyboard-gentrics [2] src code the only way of knowing how this was designed ? I've skimmed the github page and blog it links but cannot find anything. It looks like its a genetic algorithm ?
